Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 298 The First Anti-Bandit Alliance (23

After Jiang Gechang left, the more Zhu Chenggong thought about it, the more hesitant he became.Although Zhu Chenggong knew the danger of sending his army to the north, the gains after success were extremely huge.There are huge benefits in danger, to do or not to do?At this time, Zhu Chenggong also wanted to hear the opinions of his subordinates.If you listen to both, you will be bright and if you listen, you will be dark. Besides, although you are the leader of an army, you can't make any decisions.

So a quarter of an hour after Jiang Gechang left, fast horses left from the palace of Yanping County, and the guards of the palace galloped to the surrounding mansions of Zhangzhou Mansion with orders.

Tonight, Zhu Chenggong tossed and turned without closing his eyes.

At noon on the second day, most of the people Zhu Chenggong had recruited were assembled, only a few who had traveled too far had not yet arrived.At this time, all the generals in the Zhu family's army gathered together, but because this is a confidential matter, those who can come here are all confidantes.As for the supervisor Zhu Shugui, the Minister of War Wang Zhongxiao and others, Zhu Chenggong did not notify the participants.

Zhu Chenggong first glanced over the faces of all the generals present, then took out Mu Tianbo's letter, and then spoke.

"Mu Shangshu from the court said in a letter that I want the king to use all his troops to attack Nanjing via the Yangtze River."

Originally, the generals didn't know what they were called for this time, but now they all know.

After hearing this, the generals reacted differently, some were frightened and pale, and some were eager to make contributions.

Chongming Bo Ganhui was deeply trusted by Zhu Chenggong. In Qiu Tianxing's previous life, he, Shi Lang, Liu Guoxuan, Zhou Quanbin, and Feng Signal said that he was one of Zhu Chenggong's five tiger generals.

Seeing what Zhu Chenggong said, the loyal Gan Hui hurriedly asked.

"Has the prince ever agreed?"

"Not yet."

Hearing this, Gan Hui breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhu Chenggong said something else.

"But Mu Shangshu said that after defeating the gangsters, the imperial court will seal Zhejiang to this king, and let the Zheng family stay in Zhejiang forever."

When Zhu Chenggong finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene.Zhejiang?He actually granted Zhejiang to his prince?As a result, many people's eyes were red.Although his lord and his family take the lead, even a small head can make him and others die.If you can get thousands of acres of land and tens of thousands of acres of land, in Zhejiang, a rich place, just collecting rent will make you eat fart oil crotch.

However, some people asked rationally: "Your Majesty, Mu Shangshu's empty talk has nothing to do with red mouth and white teeth. Don't deny it when the time comes. Besides, our army has Geng Jimao in the north and Shang Kexi in the south. Both of them are Tartars, they specialize in treachery. If our army goes north, what will happen to our own territory?"

The person who spoke was Yong'an Bo Huang Ting, Huang Ting is a rare person in this era who lived to be 97 years old.Originally, in the third year of Kangxi, seeing that there was no hope of recovery, he led more than [-] troops to surrender to the Tartars. Later, when he attacked Taiwan, he also went out with Shi Lang.Of course, now that the Tartars have retreated to Jiangbei, he has no chance to surrender even if he wants to.But now that Zhu Chenggong's situation is very good, Huang Ting will not leave in despair.Therefore, Huang Ting, like Shi Lang, is Zhu Chenggong's loyal right-hand man.

"Hua Ming, Mu Shangshu said that he would ask King Lu to coordinate with Duke Ming Yi and Duke Ming De." Zhu Chenggong called Huang Ting's name affectionately and explained patiently.

"Then what is your decision, my lord?" Shi Lang asked with cupped fists.

After taking a look at Shi Lang, Zhu Chenggong said calmly: "This king is also hesitant. Whether it is to fight or not to fight, the risks and benefits are great, and it is really difficult for people to decide."

It is a matter of life and death, and more importantly, the prosperity and survival of the family. This decision is too difficult to make.A wrong step is a catastrophe for the genocide, and everyone has to worry about it.

"My lord, from the point of view of the final general, the regiment has perverted and harmed the gentry, and the people under the rule are suffering unspeakably. If our army sends troops to the north, it will be natural for all the people to eat pots of milk. If there is a way to defeat the innocent, it will be like a broken bamboo. !" Zhou Quanbin, also one of the Five Tiger Generals, stood up and shouted loudly.Zhou Quanbin was full of excitement when he thought of ten thousand acres of fertile land, high houses and big houses, as well as weak and pleasant Jiangnan women.

At this time, Huang Shan, Chen Feng, Liao Jing, Guo Ting, Hong Chengchong, Zhou Rui, Lin Cha, Chen Hui and other brave generals also hurriedly stood up, bowed and clasped their fists and said.

"The last general is willing to be a pioneer!"

"The last general begs the prince to go north!"

"Hang the people and punish crimes, wipe out the gangsters!"

Seeing the turmoil of his generals, when Zhu Chenggong was about to speak, there was a burst of noise outside the house, and then the door was opened with a bang, and there were only Zhu Shugui, King Ning Jing of the Supervising Army, Wang Zhongxiao, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Longwu Shidu Procuratorate Lu Ruoteng, the right deputy capital censor plus the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, Gu Chaojian, the envoy who once went to Jinling, and now the supervisory censor Gu Chaojian walked in with their heads held high.

Seeing Zhu Shugui and others coming in, the scene was awkward, and Zhu Chenggong didn't know what to say.After all, I convened my confidants to discuss important matters in the mansion, and did not invite Zhu Shugui to the scene.Now Zhu Shugui, who is the supervisor of the army, has come by himself, which makes Zhu Chenggong embarrassed and a little annoyed.He glared fiercely at the butler who followed in, his eyes filled with cruelty.Seeing his master's eyes, the butler knew that he had caused a catastrophe, but he didn't dare to speak up to defend himself.Seeing that Zhu Chenggong waved his hand fiercely at him, the housekeeper who was at a loss quickly retreated out and closed the door behind him.

In Zhu Shugui's eyes, the butler of the county prince's mansion is also a dispensable person. He will not defend the butler that this matter has nothing to do with the butler, and he broke in regardless of the butler's obstruction.

After entering the door, Zhu Shugui swept his eyes from the faces of the people present one by one, and finally looked directly at Zhu Chenggong and said.

"I heard that the prince summoned all the generals to discuss important matters. How could the supervisor be missing in this matter? I don't know what the prince and the generals are discussing?"

Although Zhu Shugui and Zhu Chenggong have a very good relationship on weekdays, they seem to complement each other and rule the army together.But now that the matter Zhu Chenggong discussed is related to the revival of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Shugui, who is the clan of the Ming Dynasty, has to take care of it. As long as he can get things done, he will not hesitate to tear himself apart with Zhu Chenggong in the future.

Because of Mu Tianbo's confession, Jiang Gechang left Yanping County Prince's Mansion after seeing Zhu Chenggong. He found Zhu Shugui, the supervising army, and conveyed Mu Tianbo's message.After learning about Jiang Gechang's intentions, Zhu Shugui immediately contacted some loyal courtiers of Ming Dynasty.

At noon today, when he learned that Zhu Chenggong had summoned his cronies to come to the palace, he knew that maybe he was going to discuss the matter of suppressing the bandits, so he hurried over with his people.

He will do everything in his power to urge Zhu Chenggong to go north.
